Phil's POV (5 months later)

I stared up at my ceiling as I lie in bed. It was 2 in the morning, but I had no intentions of going to bed anytime soon. In the past 5 months Dan, PJ, Chris, and I have grown a lot closer. I think it's safe to say they're my best friends. We hang out almost everyday after school and we have a sleepover at least once a week. The one problem is my crush on Dan has intensified. I'm not sure if I'm actually in love, or this is just some little crush I'll eventually get over. He has become my everything. My mind is always on him, no matter what. Whether I'm taking a test in school, if I'm in the shower, if I'm walking down the street, even when I'm sleeping, it all leads back to him. Oh the things I would do for him to be mine.

It was now 3 in the morning and I still couldn't fall asleep. The only thing I could think to do was text Dan. He was usually up very late on the internet. I picked up my phone.

P: "Hey Dan"

D: "Hey Phil... why are u up so late?"

P: "Cant sleep"

D: "Oh ok."

P: "So have you thought about college yet? I mean it is our senior year and everything.."

D: "Ya I have. I dont think I want to go to college"

P: "Really?!"

D: "Ya... I think I might just want to do youtube. The only problem is I don't know where Im gonna live"

P: "Ya same here. I definitely want to go to college tho"

D: "Ok Phil... Im gonna say something really crazy..."

P: "Uh oh... what?"

What could Dan possibly say I thought.

D: "Well I was thinkin... what if we got an apartment together? Like after we graduated. I mean that would be a lot of fun and we could make youtube vids together"

My mind was racing. Dan? Would want to live with me? No... I couldn't do that. Not if I have a crush on him. That would be living hell. But then again it might be a lot of fun at the same time. But unless we got together... no. He doesn't like me like that. I glanced back at my phone and realized I'd been thinking for almost 5 minutes.

D: "Phil? Ya still there? I mean it was just a thought. We dont have to live together if u dont want to..."

P: "Well Im not sure yet. I mean thats a really big thing that I would have to think about"

D: "Oh... so Ill take that as a maybe?"

P: "Ya Ill think about it"

D: "Awesome... I think Im gonna go to bed. Night Phil :)"

P: "Night :)"

I still don't know what I'm going to do about college, but that definitely makes my decision a lot harder.

Dan's POV

The next day at school, I walk in to see PJ, Chris, and Phil talking by the lockers.

"Hey guys!"I greet them. They all say hi and continue on with their conversation.

Then, Phil said,"Oh by the way, do you guys want to sleep over at my place tonight? You can even sleep over Saturday night too if you want. My parents are out of town."

"Yeah awesome," Chris answered enthusiastically.

"Definitely," PJ said.

"Sure!" I said. After talking a bit more we all went off our separate ways to class.

...

Later at Phil's house we were all hanging out playing video games like normal. Phil and I were on the couch and PJ and Chris were sitting on the floor in front of us. While Chris and Phil were playing a round of Mario Kart against each other, i kept glancing at Phil. His eyes were an amazing blue and I could stare at them all day. Apparently I had actually been staring because Phil glanced over at me. I blushed and gave him a small smile while looking down. A couple seconds later I looked back at him and he immediately stared right back. But this time we held each others gaze. This caused Phil to crash making Chris win the race. Chris started to celebrate but PJ nudged him and glanced at us. We were still staring at each other like they weren't there. Phil and I were in our own little world.

PJ then stood up abruptly and said,"I"m gonna get a drink. Chris come help me."

"What?" Chris said, but PJ was already pulling him out the door.

Phil and I were alone and still staring at each other. I realized how long it had been and looked down, blushing a deep shade of red. All of a sudden Phil stood up.

"I can't do this anymore!" he shouted.

I stood up. "Phil? What do you-" His lips crashed into mine. I was shocked. Beyond shocked actually. I didn't know what to do and I couldn't think straight.

Phil pulled back. He looked so hurt that it broke my heart knowing I caused that.

"I-I'm so sorry. I thought maybe there was a chance you liked me but I guess not since you didn't kiss back. I'm sorry. I hope we can still be friends and I-"he started.

But I cut him off smashing my lips into his. He immediately kissed back and I felt him smile against my mouth. This is what I had been craving. I hadn't known it until this very moment. I hadn't known what was happening until now. I had been falling in love with Phil Lester. I wrapped my arms around his waist and deepened the kiss. He put his arms around neck and ran his fingers through my hair. He gently tugged on it making a moan escape from my lips. This was perfect. In that moment, I knew that this was where I belonged.

"Dan..." Phil whispered against my lips.

"Yes Phil?" I whispered back.

"I do want to live with you. We could live in our own apartment in our own perfect little world," He whispered.

I grinned from ear to ear before he kissed me again. I licked his bottom lip asking for permission and he immediately gave it. We explored each others mouths and everything was perfect. Just as I started kissing his jaw I saw PJ and Chris standing in the doorway. The were both smirking. I pulled back from Phil and glared at them.

"I think I'm gonna go home. Wanna sleep over at my place Chris?" PJ said. He looked at Chris like they had a plan.

"Yeah definitely!" Chris said.

"Bye guys! Have fun!" PJ said. He winked as he pulled Chris out of the room.

"You little fuckers!" I yelled after them. Phil giggled and pulled back.

"So what do you want to do?" Phil said.

"Make out," I smirked at him.

"Dan! We just had our first kiss! Literally 5 minutes ago I wasn't even sure if you liked me!"

"Well now that I know you like me, you're all mine. We have to make up for all that lost time when we were total idiots and just drooled over each other all day," I laughed.

Phil giggled."Dan come on. We have to take it slow."

"Alright," I said pouting.

"Come on, lets watch a movie," Phil said. He took my hand and pulled me over to the couch. He pulled a blanket on over us and cuddled up to my chest. I smiled.

"Phil?" I said.

"Yeah?" He looked up at me with his big blue eyes.

"I love you."

He looked shocked but it soon melted into a smile of pure joy.

"I love you too Dan."
